Made these videos years ago when I was still using an old domain name. Transferred them to the current YouTube channel in 2018. Re-posting them here as I will be using them in class soon – if the live demo fails. The first demonstration never fails to bring excitement to the class and start the lesson with a bang.
The following simulations from the Concord Consortium shows the behaviour of molecules in different states. What I like about them is that you can highlight one or two individual molecules and focus on observing their movement.
This GeoGebra interactive allows students to vary the position of the centre of gravity of a shelf in order to observe the changes of the other two force vectors. The position of the supporting cable can be adjusted too.
The ability to resolve vectors allows students to apply principle of moments to understand how the vertical components of each force vary.
This is meant for the JC1 topic of Forces.
To embed into SLS, you can use the following code:

These are two videos that I made on series and parallel bulbs. The second video is specially made to highlight the increase in brightness of the remaining bulbs when one or more bulbs is removed from its socket.
What students will learn in O levels is that the brightness of the bulbs will not change as the potential difference is a constant, being the emf itself.
Based on the conflict between what is taught and what is observed, students will be led to discuss the reason why.
